    Rach, you know you are so right. I just read MOJT's post
    My living room looks a mess. I love my kids . Going to blitz the place next week when kids at school
    ...and its spot on. Sod the housework this week while kids off One level 1 item a day it is, thanks guys

    Great sentiment - I completely agree: kids first, housework later. Mind, it doesn't help those of us who have children at home all the time, either because there are littlies or because we home-educate - or both, as in my case - no wonder it's so difficult to keep this place decent! LOL

    Morning all

    It's cloudy and blowy here, we had a little rain earlier but it's dry at the moment. Two loads of washing out, including my bedding.

    Toots - Tuesday's list done today (please). I did the other two bedrooms at the same time. And I did some more stuff in the living room so that is complete now, whichever day that turns out to be!

    Cottage pie made for dinner.

    Vacuumed hallway and kitchen again too.

    Emptied cat tray right out and scrubbed it and refilled.

    Hope this afternoon goes well for you Toots.

    Hope everyone's OK, not caught up yet.

    Looking at today's list (I do the bathroom/toilet on Thursdays) I won't be getting a star for that. I clean my computer desk when I do the hallway because that's where it is. I vacuum round the computer and on the floor and behind as much as I can but there is no way I can pull the desk out to clean behind. I'd have to take everything off, including disconnecting the computer, and get someone to help me move it. Not going to happen.

    I am doing the cashback/comparison no worries - but wanted to check if I was on automatic renewal - and I am.
    They have offered me £188.74 with the same insurer or £163.08 'best price from our panel'
    neither of which aren't bad BUT I have properly checked my annual mileage and it is around 7000 per year on average so was going to look for quotes for a mileage of 8000.
    I also have Green Flag and need to sort out best price for that...

    HHC Lounge cleaned and have had a sort out of the wires behind the TV :eek: at the tangle!

    Reporting back...

    Removed everything from tent and took tent down which is now airing inside so it can dry off properly before I put it away. Deflated and stowed air mattresses, stripped quilts and pillows for washing. Put some recycling out, loaded DW with a few stray pots and put WM on. Not bad at all, only expected to get the tent down and inside :D
